I finally convinced hew that once in a bloo moon it was allowed..thewe is a vewy nice bench wight outside the doow, and it's wifin two steps fwom whewe she got the Gelato and Espwesso Macchiato, so It was OK to tie me thewe, cause I was nevew out of hew weach and sight

Well? Did you get anything yummie Mommi?

I pawed hew, just to make suwe she didn't fowget that she was supposed to shawe

sluwp(scoose me), that pista-she-oh Gelato is scwumptious

Sowwy fow the bluwwiness, but It's impawsibull to stand still while you'we wiggling wif delight

I stawted off wif delicate licks off the spoon, but then mommi decided I might like it stwaight out of the cup(she wass wight..you can get lots biggew licks in that way)

befowe I knew it, it was all gone..I guess evewything comes to an end eventooally, even gelato, but we had a gweat time and saw lots of fwiends pass by, bot two and fouw legged

( I even gave some of my gelato to a little cutie woofie who stopped to say hello to me)

"We'll come back again Wight mommi?" I asked...yes little Asta..as soon as we fill ouw gelato piggy bank , heehehehe, and the sun comes out again

Today of couwse it's back to wain all day,
that's Spwing

My good fwiend Pandafuw has posted about a tewwibull injustice and asks that we sign a petition..can you please go to hew bloggie and do it?
It's fow a doggie who has nevew done anything wong, just happens to be the wong bweed accowding to the authowities..PLEEZ HELP

Oh, Asta! That looks like it was SUCH a fun outing! And tasty, too. I kinda got drooly looking at all your blurry, wiggly pictures of you eating that gelato stuff cuz I could tell how DEE-licious it was!

I think you did a very good thing by talking your mommi into doing that. I bet it was real happy-making for HER, too!

Isn't gelato the BEST. My Dad worked in Italy for a company that makes Gelato freezer and they had a university of gelato to teach people how to make it properly. Mom and dad got free serves EVERYDAY !!! Mom fell in love with real Italian gelato and is always for looking places here in the States that make it

Yummmy...I think I have never had pistachio gelato..I usually get some fruity stuff to share with Dad while the Muzzer hogs the chocolate! I do like those cone things, the sweet and crispy ones that have lacey edges, ya know?

Maybe next time I come to visit we can go over to that Gelato place. Skip the coffee stuff, muzzer says no caffeenie for gussies

Asta it is so very much nice of you to take your mom out fur a treat... to get her mind off of daddy being gone. That was a very selfless thingy... Pretending that YOU wanted and LIKED the gelato ... just so your mom would allow herself a much deserved treat. YOU are soooooo good to your mom.

Honestly Asta...I think we've done enuff nursing tonight...why don't we trot over to the gelatto place and order us a double scoop with frosting and Schlag? Over a hooooooge chunk of cake? (Lacie starts to drool...not an attracive sight...) Oh my, why is my beard so wet?

We can leave the boyz here to check on things. Oh...about that Spinny Door in the lobby? We had a few issues with that and the Snow Cone truck.

Hi again - my mom has tried to make it at home, but it never comes out right! BOL - she has issues with new appliances! Papa has really put her on a fancy coffee budget, but sometimes she sneaks a little extra on the side!

If we manage to sell our building and move outside the city, I think she may need some kind of intervention ...she may go into shock when she can't walk across the street for her fix!

Pistachio is MY favorite gelato, also, Asta! And our neighborhood place is called Ecco Gelato. Even the little multicolored cups are the same as yours! Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could get together and compare our treat shoppes? First, by your house and then by mine? What a wonderful treat THAT would be.

Dear Miss Asta, we is fine! I tried to comment 3 times on heres but Blogger was timing out.I'm back though...hehehe!I thinks I live in da wrong city...and has da wrong mum. We din;t has gelato here (I don't htink) and even if we did, mum wouldn't let haves nine...a kill joy her is...hehehe!

Hi Asta! We have missed you while we were away from visiting! We are totally envious of your gelatto - our mom never lets us have anything like that (ok, Kirzon gets a bit of vanilla ice cream sometimes but that is about it). We have heard gelatto is TASTY - even better than ice cream. It is nice that you and your mom got a treat!

And thanks for telling us about going over to Pandafur's blog - mom is going through our list and we haven't made it to her place yet so we will head over now!

WE'RE BACK!!!!!!!! Listen we are all caught up and we have some questions... How did she get all those diapers on her pockets(ARCHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE) really well my question is When was Picasso's wirey period?? Love nad kisses A+A PS PL2 got as far as sitting on the jury box chair and then they dumped her!!!!! SHe will tell you all about it!!!

that new kava place sounds really super spiffy! i like that they have that nice bench there so you can snoopervise your hooman orderin' stuffs and then you can sit outside and enjoy your treatsie! i've nevarrr had the gelatos before, but boy howdy, does it sound 'n look way mega yummy yummers!! your mommi is a good sharer, btw. heehee. hope you get to go back to kava very soon like!

Asta. There is nothing we like better than imagining you and your mommi (and daddi) enjoying some gelato and espresso in your wonderful neighborhood. Just this morning Moma was remembering and reminding us of the time we were there with you ... now we can think of you sometimes across the street ... making smiles all around. You've made smiles even here ... a couple thousand miles away.

(We miss you)(And we love you)Jake and Fergi (who is on a diet ... again)

WOw Asta...I can see that yer just as ravishing as ever. How nice that yer Mommie bought ya a gelato and that ya even shared it....I am NOT into sharing except with Toby a bit......certainly not with a stranger. My Mom shares with NO ONE....

I hope the sunshine reaches ya 'n soon....we heard about all the rain....if we could we would send ya some sun...it's gettin' pretty hot here.....

oh that gelato looks scruptious asta. we went ofur to helps wiff poor lennox. it breaks ouw hearts completely when humans dont wanna give us a chance because of the way we look. cant they see we just want to be loved just like any other woofie. we are going to pray for the best for lennox.
